Re: Expect a 'Major' Unannounced Title from Capcom Before March 2024

Beerheadgamer82

RE2 remake 2019
RE3 remake 2020

RE4 remake 2023
RE Code Veronica remake 2024

They've done it before with RE remakes being separated by only a year. We all know RE3 remake had so much cut content and Nemesis transformed far to early compared to its 1999 original. Doubt this is true but not impossible as they've done it recently before with RE2 and RE3 remakes. If true hope they've learned from their cut content mistakes. Probably Monster Hunter

Re: UK Sales Charts: Spider-Man and Mario Trade Places in Battle for Top Spot

Beerheadgamer82

No digital just physical boxed sales and it's from one country. As always need a worldwide chart that includes both physical and digital. I wouldn't be surprised to see Mario Wonder have slightly more sales total given that almost 100 million more Switch in comparison to PS5. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 doesn't matter what position Spiderman 2 is in, it'll do amazing numbers regardless. Both previous Insomniac Spiderman games did 33 million total as of last year?

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Marvel's Spider-Man 2?

Beerheadgamer82

Far to good of a high quality tight package of a game to even be considered for a 7 or 8 in my honest opinion. Gameplay, story and performance 120hz 40fps VRR smoothed or uncapped is all high quality on day one so for me personally it's a 10 out of 10. Pure quality throughout and not this boring bland diarrhea quantity

Re: Sony on PS Plus Price Increase: We Want to Make PlayStation Plus Great

Beerheadgamer82

Some more day ones, not necessarily huge 1st party of course. Not expecting huge money making triple A blockbusters like Ragnarok, Horizon, TLoU3, Ghost of Tsushima 2 or Spiderman 2 to be day ones. A lot more indies day one, a lot more double A day one. Stray was a huge W for PS Plus. Up the day ones per year. Improve Premium, it's not rocket science

Re: Site News: Where's Our Alan Wake 2 PS5 Review?

Beerheadgamer82

There will be zero articles from no one about AW2 completion times and yet it's most likely roughly the same length in completion times as Spiderman 2 is but Spidey2 gets loads of articles about it from many. The argument about AW2 is 60 and Spiderman 2 is 70 doesn't make sense for its completion times because you'll get many other games at £60 or 70 that takes far less time to finish than what Spiderman 2 does and yet still no articles about those other games length times like Spidey 2 has

Impressed with the reviews I've read for AW2 so far but I'm stacked with so many other must play games recently and the backlog that I'm gonna have to wait for it, plus my bills need paying

Re: Metal Gear Solid 4, 5, Peace Walker Ports are Almost Certainly Planned, Says New Evidence

Beerheadgamer82

Fingers crossed for vol 2 content. Installing vol 1 from disc as I type. A bit weird how it works installing as it's not the usual norm but I'll get used to it. No more getting the PS1, PS2 or PS3 out to play any of the MGS classics anymore which is nice. You'd have to imagine this vol 1 and future vol 2 collection will be playable on PS6 too through backwards compatibilty, future proofing these classics even more. Also MGS1 now with trophies is a W in my book

Wish the original classic 90s Resident Evil trilogy did something similar

Re: Is It Surprising that PlayStation Fans Don't Really Care About the PS5 Slim?

Beerheadgamer82

Not surprised at all. I mean why would the many almost 50 mil PS5 owners want the PS5 slim when they're more than happy with the current PS5, especially those that have just purchased the original PS5 this year. Its just a refresh, so it makes sense for many PS5 owners to say only if my current PS5 breaks. If you ain't got one yet then the slim will benefit those or you just want the PS5 slim as a back up to your current original PS5. Rumoured Pro obviously a different story. Don't remember any fat PS4 owners saying oh I really need to sell my perfectly working fat PS4 now for the new PS4 slim model

Re: PS5 Is Running Riot in Europe, with Sales Up 175% Over Last Year

Beerheadgamer82

@Powerplay94 yh the PS5 is to big. I have really wide open shelf under my TV with lots of breathing space all round for it sat horizontally so got a bit lucky. Be interesting to see legit side by side unboxing of this new slim next to the original PS5. The Series X/S doesn't look terrible by any means, just far to safe of a design and far less interesting in a way. The Series X does look nicer with that wrap around Starfield shell thing, I forget what it's called

Re: PS5 Is Running Riot in Europe, with Sales Up 175% Over Last Year

Beerheadgamer82

You'll read all the time some saying the PS5 is ugly. Out of all the 3 current consoles on the market, the PS5 is the most interesting, futuristic looking, almost like a rocket that wants to go to the moon. I dunno maybe im just talking nonsense on side paths my brain usually goes on. Basically whether you like the look of the PS5 or not, its the one that looks more intriguing and unique and that alone spikes interest in weird ways along with this so called brand momentum. DualSense being another reason, its just so good. The Switch has done super well for itself for its unique and different hybrid ways to play. Series X/S while not ugly just plain bland oblong or flat oblong

Re: September 2023 Circana: PS5 Still on Top Despite Chart-Topping Starfield

Beerheadgamer82

@naruball not so sure its as popular as it was in the PS1, PS2 and PS3 days but there's still a big community of fans for it kicking about. 2017s GT Sport put a lot of long time GT fans off, myself included, but still got it after release and enjoyed the many online races. I think GT8 needs a much deeper chunkier back to basics career mode for it to reach the PS2 heights again?

Re: Spider-Man 2 Doesn't Need Its Day One PS5 Patch, But Insomniac Games Still Recommends Downloading It

Beerheadgamer82

@Titntin I actually like the fact its fully playable from start to finish without a patch, but that also triggered me in a weird nostalgic way hence my first comment here, which I could have worded better as to not look like I'm attacking Insomniac

Spidey2 is gonna be fully updated on my end and will be checking out all the modes including its 120hz 40fps, VRR and all that too. There's a lot of modes on release from what I've seen on Digital Foundry so far. Genuinely can't wait for it, been excited for it all year

Re: Spider-Man 2 Doesn't Need Its Day One PS5 Patch, But Insomniac Games Still Recommends Downloading It

Beerheadgamer82

@Titntin it's not Imsomniac themselves that triggered me, was the complete game fully playable on disc that triggered me, made me go back in time a little how it used to be, could have been any other developer doing this and I would have come up with the exact same comment. For the record I've almost purchased every new Insomniac game since around Resistance 2 some 15 years ago and also really enjoyed The City That Never Sleeps expansions getting all its trophies. Thoroughly enjoyed Spidey1 and Miles Morales plats. 2016 reboot of R&C such a fun plat and of course Rift Apart too. My first comment here wasn't attacking Insomniac at all, was attacking the video game industry in general, although I can also see why it looks like I'm attacking Insomniac

The second sentence of this article is related to what I've been commenting

Marvels Spider-man 2 pre ordered physically months ago which is something I don't do often with pre orders but this is Insomniac so I trust

Re: Spider-Man 2 Doesn't Need Its Day One PS5 Patch, But Insomniac Games Still Recommends Downloading It

Beerheadgamer82

@PegasusActual93 many still charging us extra for story expansions though, of which some of those expansion ideas would have been blended into the main campaign back in the day on day one or be used for the follow up sequel sometimes. On occasions to get the full experience of a game today you have to spend almost £100 and sometimes a little more, £60 or £70 on day one and then sometimes a further £20 to £50 for all the eventual smaller expansions or just be charged extra on day one with the season pass gold edition whatever they're called. Of course no one is forcing the player to get those expansions but if the player is really enjoying a particular game then he or she will most likely get those expansions

Re: Spider-Man 2 Doesn't Need Its Day One PS5 Patch, But Insomniac Games Still Recommends Downloading It

Beerheadgamer82

@Titntin it's sort of related in a way because the patch Insomniac are putting out would have been impossible less than 20 years ago. Obviously the same goes for every modern game these days not just Insomniac specifically. Absolutely adore Insomniac

Had fun with Fall Guys when launched on PS Plus and so many fun online races in GT Sport and GT7. Absolutely adore getting trophies and plats too. None of this would have been possible without the internet so I don't hate gaming online all the time

41 just getting older and sometimes moody these days

Re: Spider-Man 2 Doesn't Need Its Day One PS5 Patch, But Insomniac Games Still Recommends Downloading It

Beerheadgamer82

Weird how all games these days rely on patches to work properly and dlc expansions. The days of getting a 100% complete game on disc or cartridge with all features and bonus content included day one feels like a lifetime ago. Consoles being online means they can now charge you more money for the extra weapons and skins or story expansions which used to be all included on disc day one about 17 years ago. Take RE4 remake expansion Separate Ways now costing more money to play as an example. If the PS2 version had Internet updates and could add expansions there's no way Separate Ways would have been free on the PS2. Different times I suppose so it made more sense back then but today you pay £60 or £70 and you still ain't getting close to 100% of the game you've just purchased

Re: Poll: Will You Be Buying a PS5 'Slim'?

Beerheadgamer82

Won't be getting one but it's nice there's a slim refresh out there just incase and it offers a solution to the digital version being completely locked out of physical. If they end up doing this rumoured Pro, you'd have to imagine this current new PS5 slim be reduced in price, on or around the release of the Pro?

Re: Ubisoft Exec Says Physical Sales Slowing, But They're Not Going Away

Beerheadgamer82

Nabbed Gaurdians vol 3 today on physical 4K to go with 1 and vol 2 on 4K. 95% of the crap on Disney+ I won't ever watch so no need to ever sub monthly, same with Netflix and the many other pay monthly streaming services. The best quality on physical 4K disc too. Cherry pick favs physically and ignore all these multiple streaming subs, no need

Re: Ubisoft Exec Says Physical Sales Slowing, But They're Not Going Away

Beerheadgamer82

Always struggled with the convenience part when talking about digital vs physical. Sure when buying a game digitally on PS Store or ordered physically from Amazon when very busy at work and busy family life I get that, but the convenience part for getting up off the sofa grabbing a disc out the case from your collection on the shelf and then putting disc into your console to play I do not understand at all on the convenience part, to me that just sounds really lazy if that part of physical bothers you

Re: PS5, PS4 Players Will 'Remain Welcome' As Xbox Closes $69 Billion Activision Blizzard Buyout

Beerheadgamer82

I hope all Sony gaming bosses at the top have now all got their gloves off. Time to continue their efforts they've done with top tier 1st party exclusives (tone down this gaas a little) and make some good buisness of their own if something they want becomes available and let's not forget affordable. Affordable is unfortunate here as this is where Sony can't compete much. I dunno, a lot of smaller devs like Ember Labs as an example could be very beneficial to Sony in the long run, eventually making some of these smaller devs making some bigger triple A games over time, as well as making some of the slightly smaller games these devs are currently known for

Re: Microsoft Activision Deal Finally Given the All-Clear from UK Regulator

Beerheadgamer82

Physically still have all the very best of Crash Bandicoot games from Naughtydog on PS1 including the Crash Bash for PS1 and the N Sane trilogy so im all good. Whatever they do with Crash will NEVER match originals. There's nothing else they have I care for and any new IP they do console exclusive I'll have zero attachments to. What is this Call of Duty never heard of it before. Extremely rich company's doing massive acquisitions are never good but I don't so much mind the extremely rich company's that don't make their own consoles to lock out all those many long time 3rd party games, won't potentially be losing so many games when they're not a console maker

Edit impossible to be a boycott when you've rarely ever played Activision games

Re: PS5 Slim Officially Unveiled, Attachable Disc Drive, Launches November

Beerheadgamer82

Aware times and prices of components are different these days but I remember a time when PS1, PS2 and I think PS3 as well had price drops roughly around this time. Do agree with the first comment about more consumer friendly now with the option of this new PS5 digital model having the option to attach a disc drive, instead of being completely locked out of physical games or physical 4K movies. Never had a problem with how the original PS5 looked but its weight and size obviously an issue, this refresh now seems to fix that quite a bit and from the images shown so far looks a little more attractive too, especially the top half?. More than pleased with current PS5 but nice to have more better options. Be wanting the rumoured Pro more, best get saving all those coins from shopping and s**t

Re: 8 PS Plus Extra Games for October Leaked Early

Beerheadgamer82

Hey I'll take Gotham Knights all day long, seems a perfect game to try for the first time on Plus or GP. Usually have a decently good tolerance towards scary horror games but my god Alien Isolation broke me, still completed it but only just, sign of a really good well made horror game
